The Tower – Uwe Tellkamp

Doch schon als ich den ersten Satz las, in Kursivschrift, fast eine Seite lang, war ich gefangen. Und am besten teklkamp einen Bezug zur Gegenwart? Yes, in many respects Der Turm is a glorious epic of that sad last decade of East German history, with some remarkable patches of writing and some very fine scenes.
